    Our Mounting Dead

    We won't cut and run
    It's what our leaders say
    I turn to the news
    And find more dead on the way

    It's just another day...

    He looked so grand
    On that carrier deck of late
    Since Mission Accomplished
    It's been fivehundred and eight

    Now, I'm wonderin' today...
    If there's no other way

    The heroes have paid
    Their lives at an end
    Left the living to ask
    How much more do we send?

    I'm left with nothing to say...

    You asked for it, you got it

    Now I can't get the damn song out of my mind! Hope it stays in your head all weekend.

    The Ballad of The Green Beret
    SSgt. Barry Sadler

    Fighting soldiers from the sky
    Fearless men who jump and die
    Men who mean just what they say
    The brave men of the Green Berets

    Silver wings upon their chests
    These are men, America's best
    One hundred men will test today
    But only three win the Green Beret

    Trained to live off nature's land
    Trained to combat hand-to-hand
    Men who fight by night and day
    Courage taken from the Green Beret

    Silver wings upon their chests
    These are men, America's best
    One hundred men will test today
    But only three win the Green Beret

    Back at home a young wife waits
    Her Green Beret has met his fate
    He has died for those oppressed
    Leaving her this last request

    Put silver wings on my son's chest
    Make him one of America's best
    He'll be a man they'll test one day
    Have him win the Green Beret

    Yeah - shame on you HoneyBee. I'm sure there's something in the AU policy of this site regarding the flaming of other members and using offensive language. You're lucky not to get banned.

    No one cares about the Yankees now. All they do is use their big wallets to buy themselves all of the power. They are a prime example of corporate greed and should be punished.

And that's what I mean by 'ignorance.' People, who ordinarily might be smart, are deprived of the data by which to make a rational decision, don't have the data to do it."

    Just cos we've labelled it a war that allows the death toll to rise? How about if it was a conflict? An unrest? And BTW, the war's over. Oh damn, I shouldn't have started this again.
    Have I helped you? Please Rate my posts.

    Oh, frankly it was an invasion, not a war. And whatever that was, is over since GWB declared so So whatever is going on in Iraq could be termed anything but war.

    Davebat, sincere apologies if I mistook you for an American.

    I don't know if the Americans should be punished or not, I only know they probably are gonna shoot themselves in the foot anyways there in Iraq.

    Ah - When I heard you were on the lamb, I just thought they meant you had escaped from prison??

    Anyway, what's wrong with molesting sheep. (As long as it's not a skanky one, then all your mates would laugh at you). The only problem I find is that some of them have bad breath, which can be quite a turn off when you're trying to kiss them.
